Sigh. My snow story... I live in the Midwest and we got a lot more snow than predicted. I went home this weekend (which is 2 hours away from where I normally live) and it wasn't terrible at all there. But coming back... the wind whipped up and it started really snowing. Scariest moment of my life. I hit a patch of ice and lost control of my car :( Think God was watching out for me because my car spun all the way around. I hit the guardrail on the passenger side rather than the driver side...so I'm sore today and sort of feel like I have the flu but it's better than the broken bones I probably would have had, had the car not completely spun around. Car on that side is wrecked but without the guardrail there, my car likely would have rolled. So I'm very blessed but that was still no fun :( And needless to say, I am ready for winter to be done.

Thank goodness you were alright. Poor Car. :(

They cancelled classes for my DD at 6am this morning for my DDs University. Idiots. End of Spring break they knew students were going to travel through this blizzard yesterday. I want to pinch the administrators and the GroundHog so hard.

Feel better.

Of course not. You have to wish upon a star. Which considering we can't see the stars with all the clouds...

It is finally creeping into the mid and upper 40's here in CT. There are still chances of flurries! All I'm hoping for is no precipitation next Thursday when I have to drive to VA to catch the AutoTrain!

Well- we had a snow day Monday!:D It was a memorable Palm Sunday snowstorm! We got about 4 inches, but the temps held at around 33!:eek:
The snow was gone by Tuesday afternoon ( March sun melted it). Got some snow/freezing rain overnight Monday and my car was frozen shut Tuesday morning!:eek:
47 degrees today, but windy!:eek:
Should be 60 for EASTER!:D

The final outcome of University Snow From Heck was 431 stranded cars and in ditch, 44 cars crashes, 4 injured, one student run over on I-57. Hopefully their will be new rules at the University of Illinois Champaign Urbana, about Provost and Chancellor being both away from campus at same time so this doesn't happen again.

So thankful my kid wasn't one of the 479 students in peril on Interstate 57. :)

Dang GroundHog! He is going to be dinner on Easter.

So on Thurday we had massive flooding here in N. IL, still can't through all areas but getting much better. Spring right?

This morning Pup wakes me up, I open back door and everything is covered in a light layer of snow!

Dang GroundHog!
